my grandfather was qin shi huang

Chapter 54 Come on, father, the princess picks it up

Mei County is not only the base of the Mengxi Bai Tribe, but also the gathering place of many old clans from the Qin State. This group of people accounts for almost the majority of the population of Mei County.

Different from the ordinary people of Great Qin, this group of people are the real heroes of the old Qin people. On the road to the rise of Qin, their elders are present at every step. Almost every family has ancestors who have made great achievements in war, every family has people who have been honored, and every family has ancestors who paid the price of their lives for Great Qin!

Although it has declined now, no one can deny the loyalty of this group of old clans, and no one can ignore the influence of this group of people, although they almost never interfere with the affairs of the court.

Although the First Emperor has been engaged in infrastructure construction, paying special attention to the construction of transportation and hydraulics, and can be regarded as an ancient version of the infrastructure maniac, he has not reached the level of building roads between counties and townships.

Therefore, when the carriage turned onto the path to Mei County, it became bumpy and bumpy. Zhao Ying, who was sitting in the carriage with the First Emperor, was shaken. If the First Emperor was not there, he would have gone down. I have all my thoughts on running.

For his current physical condition, riding in this kind of carriage is simply a torture.

"Father, as I walked along the way, I noticed that although the roads in other places were occasionally in disrepair, most of them were still passable. Why is it that Mei County is so difficult to walk..."

Zhao Ying grabbed the armrest of the car with one hand and supported the swaying Emperor Shihuang with the other hand, his beard a little scattered due to the bumps, and asked with some confusion.

The First Emperor smiled bitterly.

"You think I don't want to cultivate? It's those old diehards who won't let me cultivate..."

Zhao Ying: ...

"Why?"

"They said that the court is in a difficult situation and there are many places to spend money. They refuse to let the court pay for them to build roads - what else can I do..."

When the First Emperor talked about this, he couldn't help but sigh.

He has a hundred and a thousand reasons to dislike this group of people. They are pedantic, stubborn, accepting death, and do not know how to adapt. They even strongly opposed Shang Yang's reforms back then, but he has one reason to like them. .

That is loyalty!

This is a group of Da Qin's most loyal and reliable warriors, the most trustworthy team.

For this reason, the First Emperor was willing to show courtesy and respect to them.

When Zhao Ying heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then nodded deeply.

No matter in any era, there are always such a group of lovely people who are willing to do something for this country and make a contribution that may seem insignificant to others.

This is the group of people.

I admit, you are a bit pedantic and a bit cute.

But you can’t stop building roads!

Isn't this a fool!

Zhao Ying hesitated for a moment, but finally raised the curtain, stopped the carriage, and jumped off the carriage.

"Father, how about you come down and take a walk first..."

The First Emperor has not been to Mei County in person in recent years, and he did not know that the original path was so dilapidated. Probably because the bumps were too severe, the First Emperor hesitated for a moment and jumped out of the carriage.

Only by walking in the wilderness of Daqin can you truly know what traffic is.

Every piece of land is of the same size and length, and every ridge of crops is uniform and perfectly fitted. There is almost no gap between rows. It is like an army with a neat appearance. It is so rigorous and meticulous that it is astonishing.

Just looking at this kind of crops, you can know that it is really reasonable for Qin to destroy the six kingdoms.

Zhao Ying, who was born in a rural area in his previous life, was shocked when he saw this scene. Apart from the fact that the road under your feet is a bit difficult to walk, there is really nothing else to fault.

"Father, since they are not willing to spend the court's money to build roads, why don't they build it themselves during their spare time..."

Zhao Ying woke up from the shock and asked thoughtfully.

The First Emperor glanced at him. He didn't seem to feel childish because of the superficiality of his question. Instead, there was a glint of appreciation in his eyes. When it comes to governing the country, the biggest fear is not not understanding, but pretending to understand, or making wild guesses. You don’t know what to be afraid of at a young age, and you will have many opportunities to understand in the future. But if you have the bad habit of pretending to understand or making wild assumptions, you will be in real trouble.

"They are unwilling to accept any care from the court. Those who have no military merit must participate in the corvee arrangements arranged by the government during their free time. Even if they do not need to participate in the corvee, they must practice riding and archery in accordance with the requirements of the clan..."

Zhao Ying nodded slightly, understanding in his heart.

In short, it's just that the tiger will not fall down, and it is necessary to maintain face.

At this moment, the First Emperor suddenly glanced at him and said with a half-smile.

"However, although I can't help them, it doesn't mean you can't..."

Zhao Ying: ...

I'll take the lead and help.

Seeing Zhao Ying's dull and confused look, the First Emperor couldn't help laughing.

"What's wrong, my champion general, are you really prepared to be a polished general for the rest of your life..."

When Zhao Ying heard this, he suddenly understood and looked at the First Emperor with surprise.

"You mean, you mean, let me recruit troops here?"

The First Emperor smiled and nodded.

"However, it's not easy to recruit soldiers here. Whether you can recruit them and how many you can recruit depends on your own abilities. I can't help you..."

Zhao Ying knew that the First Emperor was not unable to help, but was testing his ability, so he nodded immediately.

"it is good--"

The First Emperor personally sent him here, which means everything is explained.

If in this case, you can't recruit anyone, you will basically be useless. You don't have to think about anything in the future. From now on, you can remain anonymous and just train your muscles without growing your brain. When the day the Qin Dynasty is destroyed, you may not be able to return it. You can change your name and surname, work as a bodyguard or a fierce general under Liu Bang, and earn a living.

The grandfather and grandson walked on the road for a while, but not far away, the First Emperor began to sweat on his forehead, and he couldn't walk anymore.

I looked at the sky and calculated the distance.

A narrow smile suddenly flashed in the corner of his eyes.

"Father, are you tired? I have a quick and comfortable method here. Do you want to try it?"

The First Emperor glanced at him in surprise.

"What can you do-"

"The way is..."

Zhao Ying said, smiled, walked up to the First Emperor, bent down and hugged the First Emperor.

First Emperor:……

However, he did not wait for rejection.

Zhao Ying jumped out like a stray dog.

The 3000-meter obstacle course runs at a speed close to 6 minutes. On a slightly bumpy but straight country road, it’s no different than flying.

Zhao Ying felt that his current speed would definitely break the 6-minute record.

Whoosh whoosh—

Just when the First Emperor wanted to open his mouth, he was forced to shut it by the oncoming force. He only saw the treetops on both sides of the road retreating quickly in his eyes, and the white clouds in the sky also flew away, making him feel dizzy.

However, fortunately, this dog had very steady hands. Although he ran very fast, he really didn't feel any bumps.

Sure enough, it's fast and comfortable.

But, I don’t need my majesty anymore!
